Hey guys. I recently built my PC. I get good fps in all of the games on med/high, but what is bothering me is the 120 fps on med settings and 1124 resolution in CS:GO(5v5) shouldn't I get more? Also I get a lot of freezes on GTA V. It is running really smoothly until a point where it freezes for few seconds/drops the fps to 1 and then back to smoothly one. My specfications:
GTX 750TI OC

2x2 GB ram 1600Mhz(planning on getting 2188mhz 8 gb very soon)

AMD FX 6300

Win 10 x64 bits

And another problem. I get sometimes "Out of range " error with some random KHz/hz numbers when trying to play some games on full screen, well it happened before, but it somehow fixed by itself by uninstalling and installing the latest NVidia drivers, and now it happens again with Dying Light whenever I try to play it on full screen(Yeah I pirated it to play with a friend of mine who also didn't have it I am guilty, sorry but I am planning on buying It anyway)

but what is bothering me is the 120 fps on med settings

And im here happy with my 90 fps in low-med settings.

We have the same graphics card.
I mean, it's a good graphics card and you can pretty much play any game, but don't except to run games on high/ultra. Medium settings for most AAA games will get you around.

8gb of ram should help

Does your monitor even support such a high FPS?

No idea.. It's 75Hz

Then you should not worry about 120 fps, as your monitor can only display 75 fps

Isn't there still a benefit when frame rate > refresh rate? The game engine can theoretically still update input more frequently when the engine is running above the refresh rate. It would be a slight but a benefit nonetheless.

The main benefit comes from having more "wiggle room" when it comes to frame drops. If you're just at your target FPS during normal play, then it might drop down noticeably during intense scenes. Screen tearing can be an issue though.
And yes, having a higher FPS means that you'll experience less input lag.

GTX750Ti is good but its been beat up by GTX950 , another budget mid range card

Download more RAM.

For GTA V freezes I'm afraid that you're going to need more RAM, buying additional 4 GB would help you greatly, those freezes are a known issue to PCs with 4 GB RAM, as for the CS:GO I'm not really sure about that to be honest.

EDIT: Also your monitor is 75 Hz, meaning you can notice max 75 FPS on your screen, therefore not having above 120 FPS shouldn't really worry you unless you have a better monitor mate.

I see.. I was thinking about the same, since 1600mhz is pretty low :/ I will probably buy 8 gb in a week or smth and gonna give it a try again... Shouldn't that help with CS:GO as well? My friend(with integrated gpu tho) said that he had great increase in fps once he got 8gb

About your edit- Yeah it doesn't but I dunno.. :D Not sure if I would notice it, altho on 100 fps it runs pretty smoothly I thought I should be getting more

It's not really the mhz itself that's the problem, it's the 4GB :) and yes it is quite possible that it might be the RAM, once you upgrade your RAM you'll surely know if that was the case or not.

EDIT: I run CS:GO on average 70-80 FPS with a 60 Hz monitor, so ehh.. You should consider yourself lucky xD

1600mhz for ddr3 is normal

The difference in performance between a 1600 MHz RAM stick and a 2400 MHz one on a standard computer is almost non-existent. So don't fret too much about your memory speed.

750Ti isn't a strong or high-end card. It's merely a mid range card so FPS in CS GO is normal. GTA V issues are probably you running out of RAM. But it could also be a CPU-based problem, install CPU-Z and check your clock speeds while gaming, if it changes while gaming something is wrong. Either way you need to upgrade your ram asap.

128 bit bus, 1gb vram?, 4gb ram are ur troubles
why didnt buy an amd videocard?

I was really short on budget and I think Nvidia card for gaming>AMd cards for gaming, no? Also thanks for the answer about the 4gb I was thinking this was the problem as well..

amd cheaper and better performance, for example:
cs go -max settings-fullhd -fps 250-300
gta v- very high settings fullhd -stable 60 fps here is my proof, also ur cpu rly sux(sorry but its true)
i bought my 7870 OC almost 3 years ago, and now its equal gtx 760

  • it has great technology vce(can be used in game video capturing), it has better dx12 support

NVidia on low level is better in terms of lower power requirements. That's it. Their only edge was bribing devs to use Gameworks on certain engines to cripple any non-NVidia card, so in certain cases you can get a 50-100% boost, but is very game-depending.

Out of range errors with monitors that are not 60 or 144 Hz Gsync can happen with NVidia frequently, especially if the game engine itself is expecting 60 Hz. A lot of engines tie calculations to frames, and they limit themselves to 60. So if the monitor is set to 75 Hz and the engine wants to initialise in 60, it can lead to strange things.

The 1-second hiccup is what was said before: you are out of memory and the game unloads unneeded data to load in the fresh. 8 GB nowadays is bare minimum for playing. Frankly, for anything slowly, the way browsers keep increasing their memory footprint.

i get over 120 fps on cs go withan ati hd 4600, 8gb ram and an i3 3.9 ghz... so ram will help you alot. yes my card is shit im buying a gtx 660 in februray

you can try a clean install of drivers using display driver uninstall, I don't know what could cause that :o

120 fps on med settings and 1124 resolution

75Hz

You running a weird CRT or something? Also I don't know what's the problem if you're running 120fps on a 75Hz monitor.

Well I thought I would have more fps? Something like 150 at least.

Having even multiples of your screens refresh rate is a good thing, it means no screen tearing. But you won't "see" a difference between 75 FPS and 150 FPS, as your screen quite simply can't display it.

In my experience tearing is most prevalent when you're close to, but not quite, at multiples of the refresh rate. So if I had 58 fps, tearing is horrible. At 90-100, imperceptible.

CS:GO is now heavily CPU-limited. I used to get 500FPS on an empty Dust2 a couple years ago with a 2500K CPU running at 4.2GHz and a GTX 780. Now, I get 300FPS with the same CPU and a GTX 980 Ti.

After every CS:GO update, it gets worse and worse. It puts more and more load on the CPU.

8-12GB of RAM would help for most games.

As for CS:GO, that is a very CPU intensive game as some other people have said. Your FX-6300 is for sure the problem here. The best bet would be a Z97 motherboard and at least an i5-4690k to get good fps.
